for White Rhino and other game. Trips to the Livingstone and Railway

Club is not a game lodge, the Zambezi National Park is located
just across the river, and Lion calls can often be heard at night.
Rich birdlife is found in the area. Hippo are regularly sighted

fishing featuring prominently in the warmer months. Birding in
